THE KENNEL CLUB & ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATIONUPDATE.

The Kennel Club has routinely accepted for registration puppies whelped from a bitch bred by artificial insemination provided the breeding has conformed to these criteria:-

* The sire must have previously sired a registered litter by natural mating.

* The insemination must not be surgical (otherwise registration of the litter is at the discretion of the Kennel Club).

* If the bitch herself was whelped from a litter bred by the artificial insemination of a maiden bitch, then she must have previously produced a registered litter to a natural mating.

In all other cases, breeders are advised to seek the permission of the Kennel Club before the bitch is inseminated. Fit And Fertile Ltd advise that any further information must be obtained from the Kennel Club or visit the website; http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk
